Thanks! I've added it to the Registry. You can see some of the original light blue paint under the ID tag.

The year really doesn’t matter much for parts as all are interchangeable in probably 99% of the cases, especially the mechanical parts.

I think it's what's called Sora Blue. Here's a thread with color charts, you can search here for others. https://www.60patrol.com/forum/viewtopi ... art#p24270

Yes, it is a '68. As Esteban said most parts are interchangeable. It's when you get into body parts, lights and seats that things are less interchangeable.
